This non-profit organization, operating as Vision for Living Community Outreach CDC, is established exclusively for charitable, religious, educational, and scientific purposes under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, or any corresponding sections of any future federal tax code.
Our mission is to provide community outreach initiatives such as coaching, mentoring, training, and employment opportunities, as well as cross-cultural supportive services, including food programs and daycare services. These services are dedicated to children, youth, and adults who are underserved, underprivileged, or at-risk residents of Harris County and its surrounding counties.
Our principal office is located at 4139 Kewanee St. Houston , TX 77051. Dr. Deryck Hunte serves as the Organizer, Registered Agent, and Initial Incorporator, with the same address as the principal office.
While currently focused on Harris County and its surrounding counties, our organization reserves the flexibility to extend its community development efforts to the entire state of Texas and other states where collaborative opportunities arise with other non-profit or for-profit entities. These articles of incorporation encompass any other activities falling within the purview of a community development corporation.
Executive Summary
VFL is a dedicated nonprofit organization committed to transforming the lives of children in low-income communities by providing essential educational support, nourishment, and positive mentorship to foster their growth and safeguard their future. Our comprehensive approach includes tutoring, mentoring, homework assistance, and afternoon meals to support children’s academic success and well-being. We also provide back-to-school supplies, clothing, and an engaging summer leadership camp designed to keep children motivated and shielded from negative influences during the vulnerable summer months. Additionally, our single-parent training and child development programs equip families with the skills they need to thrive.
In the low-income areas we serve, children and their families face significant obstacles, including limited access to quality education, exposure to violence, and inadequate support systems. These challenges are compounded by the lack of resources available to single parents who strive to provide their children with a better future.
Through our targeted interventions, VFL has witnessed remarkable improvements in academic performance, personal development, and community safety. With continued support, we aim to expand our reach and deepen our impact, ensuring that every child has the opportunity to succeed and break the cycle of poverty.
